I’ll be ready to drop my controller when I can play in
something like Stark Trek or Tron. Playing with a controller has dominated the
last forty-something years in the business. What if motion gaming took over? To
me, it would be something if we could switch over to motion gaming, but we’d
have to faze the controller out. It seems as though everyone wants to have some
type of motion capability in their games from Forza 4 (Kinect) to Tiger Woods
12 (PS Move), and even in upcoming games like Metal Gear Solid Rising and Mass
Effect 3.
Maybe it’s not just a bandwagon anymore like I originally
thought it would be. Perhaps it’s the future of gaming, but how should
developers move forward? From the games that have been fitted with motion
control, do you think gaming is taking a step into the future or taking a turn
for the worse? Thoughts, opinions?
